Our flagship event designed to cater to the needs of those who design, build, operate and maintain our built environment. These sessions focus on the use of BIM tools, BIM processes and workflows, as well as project and practice strategies and leadership skills.

The Building Content Summit (BCS) is an event dedicated to bringing together thought leaders from within the design, manufacturing and software sectors to discuss best practices for development and how to leverage BIM content within projects.

Aimed at students and educators, BILT academy is a one-day summit including Labs with exciting and interesting experts as speakers to provide the opportunity to discover the current state of the art practices and workflows in a multiple platform environment.

A hackathon is a design 'sprint-like' event where teams of usually between 3-6 people work together based on a specific theme, with the goal to create usable software or hardware as a functioning prototype or product by the end of the event.

BILT ANZ SCHOLARSHIPS – are you part-time, between roles or on parental leave?

We are very pleased to announce that the BILT Scholarships program
is back for the second year-round!

We believe in the power of events to inspire, equip and connect people to think bigger and differently about what is possible in the AEC industry. As part of building a more diverse community, we are offering scholarships to individuals from Australia or New Zealand to attend our BILT ANZ 2020 conference in Sydney, where you can:

Step out of your daily routines

Mix with leaders in the digital construction industry in the ANZ region

Build new connections both within the region and beyond

Develop leadership skills

Be inspired to think bigger and differently about their work

contribute your voice and perspective to national and international conversation

We are aiming to make these opportunities available to a diverse array
of people – across sectors and demographics. Our scholarship programs are open to people employed on a part-time or casual
basis, on maternity or paternity leave, or not currently employed. You can
apply yourself or you can nominate someone else from your team.

Over the last few years, BILT ANZ have been working hard
to address diversity and the number of women who attend our event. We
want to create opportunities for those who might be disadvantaged in being
selected to attend a three-day event by their employer.

We have therefore decided to create a limited number of scholarships to
provide more opportunity for part-time workers or those currently not working,
which, based on correlation with the female gender will see more women able to
attend. The scholarships program is open to everyone, regardless of
gender – as part of the application process you need to provide evidence of
your part-time status, or that you are not currently employed.

This is an inspirational opportunity to immerse yourself in three days
of technology and learning. You’ll come away inspired to contribute to change
the future of our industry. With close to 100 classes over three days
covering BIM, Revit, ArchiCAD, Dynamo as well as leadership and management
skills, you’ll be sure to find classes relevant to your employment or studies.

Each scholarship includes complimentary registration for all three (3)
days of BILT ANZ 2020 (which includes all social events). Flights
and accommodation (if required) are not included – they are the responsibility
of the applicant / their employer. So, for those who live in Sydney – no
excuse not to apply!

DBEI has been closely monitoring the COVID-19 (coronavirus) situation around the world. While some parts of our society are beginning to open in baby-steps, none of us know how the situation will develop over the coming months. As such, DBEI has now made the decision to postpone all our 2020 events to 2021 as the well-being of all our partners and participants in our events remains our utmost priority. For new details on each region please visit our event pages. We have also sent communications to all registered attendees, speakers or sponsors for all of our 2020 events.

In the interim, DBEI will be launching several exciting virtual events and webinars in 2020 to continue to deliver the same expertise, insights and knowledge to the AEC industry during these uncertain times. We also have some other exciting initiatives we are working on to continue to provide value to our community, which we look forward to sharing with you all shortly.

We wish to thank you all for your support and appreciate your patience and understanding under the current circumstances and will continue to update our website and the community if there are any changes.
